Introducing the “Steinkriger” sweater pattern, which translates to "strong warrior" or "stone warrior" in Norwegian. This beautifully crafted knitted sweater is made from durable Icelandic wool, providing warmth and comfort. Its seamless design features a striking naive ethnic pattern that draws inspiration from classic Norwegian knitting traditions, making it a stunning addition to any wardrobe.

Whether you're knitting for yourself or looking for a heartfelt gift for your boyfriend or husband, the Steinkriger sweater is a perfect choice! This versatile sweater is stylish and cozy, ensuring that your loved one stays warm during the colder months.

The pattern is now updated and available in three sizes: L, XL, and XXL, accommodating a range of body types. In addition to the standard sizes, we are excited to introduce a new grey X-version featuring an extended pattern that goes below the armpits, available exclusively in One Size L.

This knitting pattern includes detailed instructions along with separate color charts for each size, making it easy for knitters of all levels to follow. For an added dimension, you also have the option to incorporate short rows for a more tailored fit. Additionally, we are grateful to Claire de Rugeriis for providing a French translation of the pattern, making it accessible to even more knitters.

The body circumferences for the sizes are as follows: L: 112 cm (44 inches), XL: 120 cm (47.2 inches), and XXL: 124 cm (49 inches). Please note that the Icelandic yarn stretches with use, so expect the sweater to become slightly larger and wider as it is worn, enhancing its comfort.
